Let P be the set of generalized prime numbers, and ζ P (s) , s = σ + i t , denote the Beurling zeta-function associated with P. In the paper, we consider the approximation of analytic functions by using shifts ζ P (s + i τ) , τ ∈ R . We assume the classical axioms for the number of generalized integers and the mean of the generalized von Mangoldt function, the linear independence of the set { log p : p ∈ P } , and the existence of a bounded mean square for ζ P (s) . Under the above hypotheses, we obtain the universality of the function ζ P (s) . This means that the set of shifts ζ P (s + i τ) approximating a given analytic function defined on a certain strip σ ^ < σ < 1 has a positive lower density. This result opens a new chapter in the theory of Beurling zeta functions. Moreover, it supports the Linnik–Ibragimov conjecture on the universality of Dirichlet series. For the proof, a probabilistic approach is applied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let 0 < γ1< γ2< ··· ⩽ ··· be the imaginary parts of non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. In the paper, we consider the approximation of analytic functions by shifts of the Hurwitz zeta-function ζ(s + iγkh, α), h > 0, with parameter α such that the set {log(m + α): m ∈ ℕ 0 } is linearly independent over the field of rational numbers. For this, a weak form of the Montgomery conjecture on the pair correlation of {γk} is applied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We prove that, under the Riemann hypothesis, a wide class of analytic functions can be approximated by shifts ζ(s + iγk), k ∈ ℕ, of the Riemann zeta-function, where γk are imaginary parts of nontrivial zeros of ζ(s). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
